All of this was thanks to S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto, the only profitable company in Chen Mo's hands!

Although the car company Chen Mo initially founded only had three products, its daily revenue reached over a billion US dollars! It was comparable to those Fortune 500 giant corporations, and S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto's profits far exceeded theirs. After all, Chen Mo was selling H-2 special alloy, which had a cost not much different from ordinary alloys, as titanium Titanium Alloy, which was more valuable than gold!

Adding in the profits from the cars themselves, the actual profit margin absolutely crushes any other company!

However, with the release of the two new models and the commissioning of the second car production line, the production and sales of the three models simultaneously experienced a surge, with average daily sales reaching hundreds of vehicles and sales revenue exceeding one billion yuan.

Most importantly, the three models from S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto, with their unparalleled performance, have crushed all other luxury cars and have now completely dominated the top-tier car market, seriously threatening the interests of major automotive groups.

Although top-tier cars do not account for a large share of the business of the major automotive groups, their profit margins are the highest. Even if many car companies share this pie, each company's profit is not small. However, now, this delicious cake at the top of the automotive pyramid has been swallowed up by S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company alone!

How could they possibly tolerate this!

Soon, some people couldn't sit still any longer. The first to make a move was not Chen Mo's old rival, Fūtián Group.

Or, in Chen Mo's eyes, they were not worthy of being called his opponents at all, but merely some overconfident fools.

In the last espionage incident, Fūtián Group sent people to infiltrate the company and steal technical data on the "Knight" off-road vehicle. Chen Mo knew everything about the mastermind behind it, but he did not retaliate against them.

It wasn't that Chen Mo was magnanimous, but rather that he felt direct fighting was too boring. Since they wanted to deal with S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto, Chen Mo would play along. He planned to use a less violent approach to completely crush the Fūtián Group through S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto.

However, he did not change his original development plan because of this. There is still a long way to go. S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto will enter the mid-to-low-end car market sooner or later. He can even directly overturn the entire car industry through new energy and power technology innovation. At that time, it will be the end of Fūtián Motors.

Therefore, in Chen Mo's view, Fūtián Group was just a small fry who coveted the advanced technology and interests in his hands, but only dared to send a spy and use some petty tricks. It couldn't even arouse Chen Mo's killing intent. He only planned to crush it under his feet naturally as S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto developed!

Fukuda Kosuke had just been discharged from the hospital after suffering a heart attack caused by Chen Mo. He then learned that S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto had released two new models. However, aside from jealousy and envy of Chen Mo's top-notch automotive manufacturing technology, Fukuda Kosuke had no intention of making a move again.

The failure of the last operation has shown that S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto is not as simple as it seems. Although it is not large in scale and seems to be unguarded, the top spies they sent out disappeared without a trace, and they couldn't even get into the office building.

Fukuda Kosuke has no intention of taking action again until he finds a more reliable solution.

Most importantly, what they coveted was S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto's technology; S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto itself did not actually affect their interests.

At least for now, that is the case.

The core business of the Fūtián Group is the low-to-mid-end market, with its main products being low-to-mid-end family cars priced around tens of thousands of dollars. Although they also have a high-end brand, their most luxurious models are priced at no more than two hundred thousand dollars, which is considered a high-end car for the average person, but there is still a huge gap between them and top-tier luxury cars that start at one million dollars. This is why the Fūtián Group is eager to steal technical data from S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto.

Thanks to their huge market share in the low-to-mid-end market, they have maintained their position as the automotive group with the highest market value in recent years, consistently surpassing top automotive groups such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW.

However, as other automakers compete for the mid-to-low-end market, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and other originally high-end car companies have also launched mid-to-low-end models. Their top position is becoming increasingly precarious. Their inability to compete in the top-tier market has always been the biggest obstacle to their continued development, forcing them to passively hold onto their original mid-to-low-end market and unable to launch an attack on the high-end market.

However, regardless of the circumstances, the two top-of-the-line models released by S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto at the same time, which are in the same class as the "Knight" off-road vehicle, have had no impact on Fūtián Motors.

Since the interests of the Fūtián Group have not been affected, they naturally don't need to worry. However, top automakers whose main market is the premium automotive sector are not sitting still.

Chen Mo's two new models, the "Thunder" supercar and the "Lord" luxury sedan, along with their original "Knight" off-road vehicle, essentially cover the entire top-tier luxury car market, putting them on the opposite side of all the top car manufacturers.

Commercial competition is normal, after all, the competition between major automobile groups is already extremely fierce.

But S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto is different!

The original competitive relationship among these car companies was like that of vendors in the same market. They were all equally strong and their prices were similar. Although they competed with each other, no one could suppress the others, and everyone made money.

However, S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto is like a newcomer, a greenhorn. Although its prices are high, its products are much better than theirs.

The previous "Knight" off-road vehicles were fine, since their audience was limited and their impact on the market was not significant. Their real money-making ventures were still supercars and luxury sedans.

Now, after snatching the top-tier off-road vehicle market, S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto is even trying to take away these two last remaining pieces of the pie!

Among them, the supercar manufacturers are the most affected!

Supercars are already the most expensive type of car. The "Knight" off-road vehicle and the "Lord" sedan are much more expensive than most similar models, and few people can afford them. However, in the supercar field, a price of five million is not so difficult to accept. There are many supercars with higher prices, but in terms of performance, none of them can compare to the "Thunder" supercar from S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company!

Therefore, after S.H.I.E.L.D. Auto Company released its supercar, it posed a huge threat to those world-class supercar manufacturers.

The first to get restless was Ferrari, Italy's top sports car manufacturer!
